DC Councilmembers Janeese Lewis-George and Zachary Parker Co-Sponsor the “Grandparent and Caregiver Subsidy Eligibility Amendment Act of 2023″

This legislation would raise the household income cap for eligibility for the subsidies from 200% to 300% of the Federal Poverty Line.  Relatives who take in children they never expected to raise are still in poverty at 300% of FPL, and need help to provide safe and stable homes for these children.
